The Chargers are the masters of performance art in the NFL, it's unbelievable.Two teams not going to the playoffs, but one with a longstanding legacy of finding a way to lose this kind of game.
They are holding the 49ers....it seems to be working as Wilson is running well.Seattle cannot pass protect. Until that gets fixed, this team is dead in the water.
Wasn't watching. Who's this?His career is in jeopardy. That sucks, what a damn shame.
Hauschka was good at hitting the uprights too.Ironic if it bites them since Walsh is the kicker who honked the playoff kick vs Seattle
He's a kicker from South Korea. There was a lot of hype around him because the entire country of South Korea was behind him. And he's missed two game ending kicks, one to tie the game and one to win.Wasn't watching. Who's this?
Ah, I didn't watch the game. Bedtime for kids. I've heard about the kicker. It's too bad, seems like a good kid.He's a kicker from South Korea. There was a lot of hype around him because the entire country of South Korea was behind him. And he's missed two game ending kicks, one to tie the game and one to win.
Facing a Dallas secondary that is now missing 3 of its top 4 corners.Simien kind of looks like a competent QB this week.
Seems a little premature to count out the Dolphins -- they've got 4 games against the Bills and Jets, and they just banked a little luck with a win in a coin-flip game that came down to a kicking contest. There won't be 3 10-win teams in the AFC West; the Dolphins seem eminently capable of snagging the second wild card.Two teams not going to the playoffs, but one with a longstanding legacy of finding a way to lose this kind of game.
Two losses by a total of 5 points, after going 1-8 in one-score games a year ago. "Unbelievable" is definitely the word for it.The Chargers are the masters of performance art in the NFL, it's unbelievable.
Which means how bad the Giants' offense must be.Dallas has no defense.
This is correct, more accurate to say I'd put my money on one of BAL/PIT and OAK/KC/DEN getting in over Miami.Seems a little premature to count out the Dolphins -- they've got 4 games against the Bills and Jets, and they just banked a little luck with a win in a coin-flip game that came down to a kicking contest.

To be fair, the Giants were facing the Dallas secondary when healthy. They've since lost 3 of their top 4 corners (one of them late in the Giants game, two of them early in the Denver game)Which means how bad the Giants' offense must be.
Dak has been under siege all game and his star RB is averaging less than 1 yard per carry. I'd like to meet the QB that could succeed under those conditions. If that QB exists, his name certainly isn't Alex Smith.Dak is so overrated. I know that is true of almost every Cowboys QB, but wouldn't you rather have Alex Smith as your QB?
Only one of KC, Oakland, and Denver gets a home playoff gameThis Broncos team could be a problem
again, advantage AFC east team. Jay Cutler maybe now suprasses Chad Pennington as the best AFC east quarterback in the Brady era. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOnly one of KC, Oakland, and Denver gets a home playoff game
Maybe Smith is smart enough at the line of scrimmage so that his star RB wouldn't be averaging one yard per carry? Dak is put into an optimum position to succeed with a great offensive line, great back, and a good set of receivers. When his team has barely over a hundred yards of total offense he deserves a lot of criticism.Dak has been under siege all game and his star RB is averaging less than 1 yard per carry. I'd like to meet the QB that could succeed under those conditions. If that QB exists, his name certainly isn't Alex Smith.
Yep, none of those teams is going to worse than 3-1 against the AFC East, and a couple of them 4-0, and then the winner will have to go to Foxboro in round two.Only one of KC, Oakland, and Denver gets a home playoff game
I don't think most sane fans would take a 33 year old Alex Smith over Dak Prescott. Alex Smith is who he is.Dak is so overrated. I know that is true of almost every Cowboys QB, but wouldn't you rather have Alex Smith as your QB?
